Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)
Avid highly recommends you create a separate derived power system for your Avid NEXIS File
Gateway server. This provides protection against sudden power surges or losses that could cause you
to lose files or experience data corruption.The power outlets must be from the same distribution
panel. This helps prevent ground loops that can be caused by plugging equipment into power sources
with different ground potentials. Make sure there is adequate, dedicated power for the UPSes.

All electrical work at your site must be done by a licensed electrician. The electrical changes
must meet country, state, and local electrical codes.
The Avid NEXIS File Gateway server supports UPS devices that are connected using network
connections, USB connections, and serial connections. Install the software from the UPS
manufacturer for advanced shutdown behavior, and to calibrate the UPS device. These software
packages also allow for a connected Windows server to send alerts to other Windows servers to
perform actions.
If your Avid NEXIS File Gateway server is connected to a network, network policy settings might
also prevent you from completing this procedure. Make sure there is adequate power and the correct
receptacle type for each hardware component, the rack power strips, and the UPSes. Do not use
extension cords to plug in any of the hardware components.
